pains about the chest and sides,
and sometimes in the back.
They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth has q bad taste, especi-
ally in the morning. A sort
of sticky slime collects about
the teeth. The appetite is poor.
There is a feeling like q heavy
load on the stomach; sometimes
a faint all-gone sensation at
the pit of the stomach which
food does not satisfy. The
eyes are sunken, the hands
and feet become cold and feel
clammy. After q while q
cough sets in, at first dry, but
after a few months it is at
tended with a gTeenish colored
expectoration. The patient
feels tired all the while, and
sleep does not seem to afford
any rest. After a time he be-
comes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forebod-
ings. There is a giddiness, a
sort Of whirling sensation in
the head when rising up sud
denly. The bowels become
costive; the skin is dry and
hotat times; the blood becomes
thick and staSnant; the whites
of the eyes become tingod with
yellow; the Kidney seuations
becomes scanty and high col
ored, depos;ting q sediment
after standing. There is fre-
quently q splitting up of the
food, sometimes with q sour
taste and sometimes with a
swedish taste; this is fire.

IS thought that nearly one-half

'',rhe bravest Yankee soldier / ever
saw says Hon. Henry w. Flournoy,
secretary of the commonwealth of Vir-
ginia, participated in one of the fights In
the valley of Virginia. 1t was during
Sheridan's raid in the valley. Our COIN
pany of cavalry was going across n broad
and level field mt a sweeping gallop. In
the woods l saw solitary Yankee soldier
sitting upon horse and / noticed that
every now and then 6ust rs fast as he
could load) he would fire down our line.
Pop, pop, pop would 60 his rifle, and de-
termined to capture him. / entered the
woods without his seeing me and came up
in the rear of him. / had fine seven
shooter in my hand and intended to use it
in case of an emergency. Irode up toward
him as quietly as L could, and had my pis-
tol cooked ready for use If he attempted
fight Suddenly he turned and saw me, and
in an instant raised his rifle | leveled my
pistol, but he was quicker than /, and the
ball from his rifle passed through my neck.
A few moments afterward there was a
general skirmish, but was badly wound
ed, and did not know what became OF the
fellow who shot me and who stood solitary
and alone in the very face Of whole COM
pany of Confederate cavalry and resisted
them.-Chicago Times.

Fashion Plates for Idols.

l will not say anything about the vari-
Gus religions of Japan, but that the jap
anese cannot understand that whole ma
tion should be without ''poosah, - one
of the idols. Many of them believe that
we have our deities. There was friend
of mine at my home who, while riding
down a road, saw an old Buddhist priest
out in front of house calling wildly on
an idol. Said my friend:
"What is the matter!''
ooh, said the priest, "there is child
sick with bilious fever and we are trying
to cure him by the use of new idol, just
from America !"
"You arc mistaken" said my friend,
"our people do not worship idols.''
ssWen, was informed that you did,
and that this idol I have in the house is
the one you bow down to over there" I"
bring it out and let me see it, )" said
my friend with a smile.
The old priest went up and brought out
one of Godey's fashion plates. thought
there was great deal Of truth In what
the old priest said, although had never
heard of Godey's fashion plates being used
for bilious fever before. Missionary in

They have no Bible inthe French courts
to swear on, and the cruciilx which was
used for that purpose has been removed.
But now and then witness needs TO swear

at Marseilles lately of a man accused of
murder. A cab driver was asked If he
could swear to certain testimony he had

THE GENUINE TURKISH BATHS.

Interior of n Hamam, or Bathing Estab.
lishment-In Cloud of vapor.
The bathing establishments, or ha-
mans, consist of large octagonal or circu-
lar halls, paved with fagstones, around
which run stone seats or very hard divans.
In these halls, which are heated to excess
and filed with steam, the bathers have
themselves washed, rubbed and sham
pooed by employees called telaks, who,
with their hands incased in hair gloves,
knead the flesh vigorously until it becomes
clean, flexible and soft like satin.
Men go to the bath singly, and remain
there only an hour or two; but women go
there in parties, and sometimes pass the
entire day there, drinking syrups, smok-
ing cigarettes, eating rhat loukoum and
sweetmeats and sleeping on divans or in
small beds placed around the bath room.
The exterior of the hamams presents
nothing very remarkable. They are large
low structures, built of brick, covered
with stucco, and always paved with mar
BILE. They are lighted only by small,
round skylights set in the cupolas and
provided with greenish panes, which
throw into the rooms dim light resem-
bling moonlight and very favorable to re-
pose. A furnace underneath heats the
building by means of pipes which are run
all through the walls even. The temper
ature is raised to forty, fifty and sixty de-
grees Centgrade.
After undressing the bathers envelop
themselves in a long wrap (pechtumaD
and make a delightful plunge into a cloud
of vapor, which produces, even in the
case of the leanest, prOfuse and debilita-
ting perspiration. One puts on clogs,
which look like small stills, to protect
ones feet from the extreme heat of the
floor There are large white marble urns
fastened against the wall, which receive
cold and boiling water by separate faucets;
it is around these urns that all the purifi-
cations commanded by the Koran are
made. Seated upon little cedar stool,
the bather pours upon his head and body
large bowls of water, which he heats to
the desired temperature by the faucets.
The hamams, of which there are more
than 800 in Stamboul alone, have no
fixed tariff. The charges depend upon
the look and the dress of the bather and
vary from two sous to twenty-three
francs. Rich pashas sometimes hire them
outright for their families, and think that
if they pay less than forty Turkish livres
($18), they have done something deroga-
tory to their dignity On the other hand,
beggars and poor people are admitted free
of charge to certain baths designed for
their use; and this is blessing to them
as well as TO their neighbors; for these pc
riodical ablutions diminish their extreme
fllthiness and arrest the growth of the
vermin nourished at their expense. The

oneer ritles Cor Inrentinns.

In looking over the list of patents re-
ferred to an element Of mystery as wen an
element cf humor, seemed to relieve its
somewhat prosa;c features. The patent
granted for ''cap litter for coffinsn had
q certain combination Of obscurity and
gloom which excited reflective melan-
choly, but as the next invention on the
list was '.shank stiffener," there was a
reaction of curiosity To ascertain whether
the two inventions had anything in COM
mon. Another invention, "sole and
heel edge blacker for boots and shoes, |"
struck me as an evidence of the way in
which convenient appliances FOR polishing
the understanding 80 70 speak, have been
specialized. My imagination had some
scope in determining whether tic patent
for 'crimping machine applied to an
invention for the benefit of the lady's
dress or q device for the arrangement Of
her hair, and another patent for m s'elec-
trio switch left me in uncertainty
whether railroading or hair dressing was
to profit by it. A "heddle for looms''
was even more cf a puzzle to ne. as had
never heard OF the FIRST mentioned article
and could only conjecture that Il lad

was slender, tow headed boy, pale and

industrious. Before he was admitted to
the bar he WINS a saddler, and while work.

n. p. Banks. Some days ago Gen. /. K.

Banks, who delivered an address of an
hour in length, reading 1t from manu-
script. A week later the two gentlemen
met on similar occasion in another city.

Banks deliver the same address extern

word. Upon inquiry he learned that

There lies in the center Of each mans heart
A longing and love for the good and pure.
And IL but an atom or larger part,
Itell you this shall endure, endure
After the body has gone TO decay
Yea, after the world has passed away
The longer live and the more see
or the struggle OF souls toward heights above
The stronger this truth comes home to me,
That the universe rests on the shoulders o
Love
A Love so limitless, deep and broad,
That men have renamed it and called it God.
And nothing that ever was born or evolved,
Nothing created by light or force,
But deep in its system there lies dissolved
A shining drop from the great Love Source
shining drop that shall live for aye,
Tho kingdoms may perish and stars may die.
